TORAIN C1 26er
|
Bikes with 26” wheels are falling out of favour these days as a result of the rise of 27.5" and 29” wheels. As a result we manufacture the Torain C1 bike in the 26" version only for very small cyclists (up to 155-160 cm), and in general we can say that these are often children's or junior bikes. If a customer so requires, we can manufacture it for a single chainring and with light front triangle, whereby we once again consider the requirements for juniors. The Torain C1 is a quality aluminium frame made of 7020T6 alloy. During frame design use is made of large-diameter tubes, which better resist the dynamic strain during the ride and offer the cyclist faster reaction and good handling in the terrain due to their rigidity. The profiling of the rear stays ensures comfort during the ride. Thanks to our own production, we can customise frame geometry, and not only in the case of physical disproportions or anomalies.

 Handmade welds |
Detailed view of welding on the seat tube - top tube - rear stays node. Duratec frames are hand welded and then ground by hand. They do not have a conventional bead shaped by a welding robot, because the weld is performed by hand in several steps. You can find other information about welds and grinding on the technology page. |

The Torain C1 frame is only suitable for a front derailleur on a brazed-on. The advantage of the attachment is a shaped join, and during use there cannot occur twisting of the front derailleur, as occurs in the case of fixing to a clamp. |

The chain holder is screwed onto the inner side of the rear frame dropout and is a highly valuable aid especially for those who often remove the rear wheel from the frame. Thanks to this clever little gadget, when you remove the wheel the chain will stay on this holder, and you can handle the bike just as you want without having to secure the chain. So, clean hands, secured chain, and the optimum state for transport. |
